Yay for those of you willing to give DC a chance. I hope that we can supplement your FRUA experience.

For those people looking for wall/combat wall creating programs, DC has something along those lines (at least kind of).

Many, many moons ago, Phalzyr created the EZ-wall creator that is downloadable from the DC site. It's a stand alone program for creating walls for use in DC. It can make walls for all 3 resolutions in the blink of an eye. Of course, as Suzanne was mentioning above, it's not necessarily a substiture for an artis, but for a straight-forward wall, it works pretty well. And if you're a Photoshop user, there are several actions floating around - one to create walls for 640x480, at least one for 1024x879 and an action to create combat walls.

|sf>You misunderstand. I have no complaints about the wall-drawing program that creates walls in the 3rd player mode (i.e. what EZ-wall creator does). In most cases, I don't have to touch up its results (unless I'm picky about the close ups).

Someone was suggesting that there should be a program that draws the walls for combat dungeon art. That's where I'd be a little more picky.

No worries. I didn't think you were complaining. I just wanted to mention these b/c some people who want to design are not artists (or at least think they're not) but still want to do stuff themselves.

I think all of the shortcuts work well for basic/standard/default/choose-your-word kinds of walls and combat walls. Sometimes they need to be touched up a little bit. It's the more unusual walls and combat walls that need the special attention given to them by a person.
